Things to say to your client

The design will explore the dynamics between the opposing forces at play within your relationship.

All materials will be white to reflect the purity of my thoughts.

The design will be diametrically opposed to your budget.

My fees reflect the impression of quality implied by the design of my business cards.

I’m not interested in your opinion on the design. I’m only interested in the validity of the forms.

You should not have furniture. The natural light would cause the fabric to fade.

We will dissolve the barrier between the interior and the exterior. You should wear a robe.

Board-formed concrete will be required.

Options will not be needed. The design is perfect just the way it is. Choices would just dilute the idea.

Design reviews will be a format for me to present the design to you. You should remain quiet during the presentation.

Construction drawings will reflect how the project should be built, not how the contractor will build it.

My fees are not meant to be ironic.

No,

Let’s just do it my way.
